Detailed Description

This section contains all resolution related functions.

The resolution determines how accurate the amplitude of a signal can be measured. The higher the resolution, the more accurate the input signal can be reconstructed.

Devices can support multiple resolutions, use ScpGetResolutions() to determine the available resolutions for a device.

Besides native hardware resolutions, also enhanced resolutions can be available for a device. Use ScpIsResolutionEnhanced() to determine whether the current resolution is a native hardware resolution or an enhanced resolution.

The resolution can be set manually, but can also be set automatically, based on the selected sample frequency. Use ScpGetAutoResolutionModes() to determine the available auto resolution modes. Possible auto resolution modes are:

AR_DISABLED : Resolution does not automatically change.
AR_NATIVEONLY : Highest possible native resolution for the current sample frequency is used.
AR_ALL : Highest possible native or enhanced resolution for the current sample frequency is used.

Manually setting a resolution will set auto resolution mode to AR_DISABLED.

By default the auto resolution mode is set to AR_NATIVEONLY for the Handyscope HS5.

Function Documentation

uint32_t ScpGetAutoResolutionModes ( TpDeviceHandle_t hDevice )

Get the supported auto resolution modes.

Parameters

hDevice A device handle.

Returns: The supported auto resolution modes, a set of OR-ed AR_* values.

Since: 0.4.3

uint32_t ScpGetAutoResolutionMode ( TpDeviceHandle_t hDevice )

Get the current auto resolution mode.

Parameters

hDevice A device handle.

Returns: The currently selected auto resolution mode, a AR_* value.

Since: 0.4.3

uint32_t ScpSetAutoResolutionMode	(	TpDeviceHandle_t	hDevice,
		uint32_t	dwAutoResolutionMode
	)

Set the auto resolution mode.

Parameters

hDevice	A device handle.
dwAutoResolutionMode	The required auto resolution mode, a AR_* value.

Returns: The actually set auto resolution mode, a AR_* value.

Since: 0.4.3

uint32_t ScpGetResolutions	(	TpDeviceHandle_t	hDevice,
		uint8_t *	pList,
		uint32_t	dwLength
	)

Get an array with the supported resolutions of the specified device.

The caller must assure that the array is available and that enough memory is allocated.

Parameters

hDevice	A device handle.
pList	Pointer to array to contain the supported resolutions, or `NULL`.
dwLength	Number of elements in array.

Returns: Total number of supported resolutions.

Example: uint8_t byResolutionCount = ScpGetResolutions( hDevice , NULL , 0 );

uint8_t* pResolutions = malloc( sizeof( uint8_t ) * byResolutionCount );

byResolutionCount = ScpGetResolutions( hDevice , pResolutions , byResolutionCount );

printf( "ScpGetResolutions:\n" );

for( i = 0 ; i < byResolutionCount ; i++ )

printf( "- %u bits\n" , pResolutions[ i ] );

free( pResolutions );

Since: 0.4.0

uint8_t ScpGetResolution ( TpDeviceHandle_t hDevice )

Get the current resolution.

Parameters

hDevice A device handle.

Returns: The current resolution, in bits.

Since: 0.4.0

uint8_t ScpSetResolution	(	TpDeviceHandle_t	hDevice,
		uint8_t	byResolution
	)

Set the resolution.

Parameters

hDevice	A device handle.
byResolution	The required resolution, in bits.

Returns: The actually set resolution, in bits.

Remarks: Changing the resolution may affect the sample frequency and/or record length.; Setting the resolution will set auto resolution mode to AR_DISABLED.

Since: 0.4.0

bool8_t ScpIsResolutionEnhanced ( TpDeviceHandle_t hDevice )

Check whether the currently selected resolution is enhanced or a native resolution of the hardware.

Parameters

hDevice A device handle.

Returns: BOOL8_TRUE if the current resolution is enhanced, BOOL8_FALSE otherwise.

Since: 0.4.0
